Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Woodbury County, Stephanie Forker-Parry, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., and Vaitheswaran and Chicchelly, JJ. Opinion by Vaitheswaran, J. (5 pages)
A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights to three children, contending (1) the State failed to prove the grounds for termination cited by the district court; (2) termination of her parental rights was not in the children’s best interests; and (3) she should have been granted “additional time to reunify” with the children. OPINION HOLDS: We affirm the termination of the mother’s parental rights to the three children.
